First, a dynamic cost minimization model is utilized to compute the minimum amount of investments needed in various water projects such that an exogenously set agricultural growth target can be met. Next, the minimum cost solution is again derived accounting for the macroeconomic linkages of agriculture in a joint agro-macro model. The differences in the optimal solutions obtained from the two models suggest that foreign aid is commonly allocated into financing water investments that are non-optimally planned.
